Cafe X: By Any Beans Necessary Grand Opening
Aug 30 @ 10:00 am – 2:00 pm

This is the official launch of Café X: By Any Beans Necessary, a worker-owned cooperative coffee shop in San Diego, CA. We are not your average coffee shop. Book clubs including non-Eurocentric literature; poetry readings; peer-to-peer language mentoring; writing programs and exchanges; a loan-to-own and lending program for books; organic coffee obtained through direct relationships; and so much more – will all be amenities available to Café X: By Any Beans Necessary visitors. This project celebrates the richness of our culture, using it as the foundation of our mission and purpose. By doing business differently, we maximize the creative freedom of our member-owners, address whole person and community wellness, and keep money flowing within our community.

A portion of proceeds from food and beverages will benefit our two co-located nonprofit organizations Urban Restoration Counseling Center and Open Heart Leaders.

In July 2018, the actor and comedian was honored with a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Just months later, in December 2018,  Cedric’s hometown of St Louis, Missouri named a street in his honor, Cedric The Entertainer Way, in recognition of his far-reaching career achievements and dedicated philanthropy.

In addition to starring in and executive producing TV’s #1 new comedy, THE NEIGHBORHOOD, Cedric also currently co-stars in the hit comedy “The Last O.G.” Additional television credits include “The Soul Man,” a comedy series Cedric co-created, executive produced and starred in for five seasons; “The Steve Harvey Show,” for which Cedric won four consecutive NAACP Image Awards for Outstanding Supporting Actor in a Comedy; the sketch comedy series “Cedric the Entertainer Presents” nabbing the AFTRA Award of Excellence; and Disney’s animated “The Proud Family,” which earned him an NAACP Image Award. Also noteworthy, he hosted the 12th season of the syndicated game show “Who Wants to Be a Millionaire.”

In film, Cedric is perhaps best known for his crowd-pleasing performances in the hit “Barbershop” film franchise, as well as “The Original Kings of Comedy,” the Spike Lee-directed concert feature that chronicled the record-breaking Kings of Comedy Tour. Additionally, his vocal talents are showcased in the top-ranking “Madagascar” and “Disney’s Planes” animated franchises. Most recently, Cedric earned critical acclaim for his dramatic performance in the Oscar-nominated feature, “First Reformed,” starring Ethan Hawke and Amanda Seyfried.
